ClearPath Motor Specs

To reduce the number of part numbers shown in the table, we usually only show the “base” part numbers—motors with the lowest cost options for encoder resolution, shaft diameter, shaft seal, and firmware type. These options don't affect the performance data shown in the table (only the price), so they are hidden by default.

If you want to show every part number (there are a lot!), check the box below. This is only recommended if you are trying to search for a specific part number in the table and can't find it.

This column displays the motor's optimal voltage(s), along with other common operating voltages.

ClearPath input voltage ranges:

• Fractional hp (NEMA 23/34): 24-75 VDC (90 VDC max)
• Integral hp (NEMA 56/143): 110VAC (single-phase), 190-240 VAC (single- or three-phase), or 300-415 VAC (3-phase, 5-wire)

You can see how choosing a voltage other than that of the optimal voltage affects performance.

The selection dropdown emphasizes the optimal voltage for fractional hp (75 VDC) and integral hp (230 VAC 3-ph) ClearPath motors, as shown below:

Peak power is defined as the product of the motor's peak torque times the maximum rotational speed at that peak torque. A motor's peak power usually occurs at the “knee” of a torque/speed curve (at the point where the torque starts to fall off due to voltage limitations). Like peak torque, peak power is available for a few seconds (application dependent).

Peak torque is the maximum torque that a motor can deliver for a few seconds at a specific speed (application dependent). Consult the torque speed curves by model for detailed information.

Continuous torque is the maximum torque that a motor can deliver, indefinitely, at a specific speed. Consult the torque speed curves by model for detailed information.

Continuous Power is defined as the product of the motor's continuous torque times the maximum rotational speed at that continuous torque. A motor's continuous power is available indefinitely, and usually occurs at the “knee” of a continuous torque/speed curve (at the point where the torque starts to fall off due to voltage limitations).

The NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) standard frame sizes define specific characteristics (typically mechanical) about a motor or motor family. These specifications include faceplate dimensions, pilot diameter, as well as mounting patterns, to name a few. Generally speaking, a larger NEMA frame size indicates a physically larger and more powerful family of motors.

*Note that the *D100 is actually an IEC (metric) standard.

All motor dimensions, including 2D and 3D solids, can be accessed via the Downloads section of the web site or by navigating to a particular motor model information page.

All ClearPath motors are grouped into various power classes. The lowest-power motors start at under 50W, but there are available motors all the way up to 4hp continuous.

Use this column to display motors with a similar continuous power rating.

• - Use the comparison in the rightmost column to compare up to 3 motors.
• - The figure below shows an example of this useful tool:

The maximum speed at which the motor still produces 10% of its peak torque.

You can only select up to three models to compare.
